Mr Bose shipped this to me a while back, due to travels and such, I've only recently was able to press her into
some leather chores, amazing knife, none the like that I've
owned to date, with the D2 honed up, it "flows" through
the leather very smoothly!







One of the uses is to do a final trim along the top section
where the top edge of the sheath can't be later trimmed



Another is to trim tightly along the edge of the sheath
where I will allow the one bit to fold down to form the
belt loop, a sharp knife as well as a pointed one is needed
for this chore



This shows the section that is then free to fold down to form
the belt loop



It's an excellent knife and very glad to have her in hand!
Thanks again sir!

Nice work and a great looking knife. Have you done any sheaths for Bose folders? And do you have any pictures?

It's been a while for any of the folders but here were two
finished up, these are vertical carry, which I recommend as
it is narrower on the belt, works well.



One of these days I'll save up for a backpocket folder!

Thanks, that they be, I like to make them as compact and
solid as I can, so as not to take up too much room on
your belt, the vertical sheaths are made from one piece
of leather, you can see some images that go into making
them in this photobucket page of mine,
Instructions
That shows a combo sheath, which I am not taking orders
for any longer, but you can get the idea of how it goes
together.

Couldn't edit the one portion of the above posts, as I had
a request for what the first sheath looked like complete
well I don't take photos of all the sheaths made, but here
is one similar to it, made for a fellow in the UK, this one
has a little more angle to it's carry, both are worn horizontally
on the belt, but the one above will ride fairly straight

Very nice work Gary. Tony's knives cut leather like they are going thru butter.
